Sync and Async Games
Freely switch turn-based game modes: start synchronous and end asynchronous or vice versa. Let players rejoin rooms in case of disconnects or in case of resurrecting a game. Even if all players left the room you can keep it alive and let players re-join.
Cloud Save
Persist your game state with cloud save – players and IDs, room and player properties, event cache – when switching to asynchronous mode.
Event Forwarding
Event Forwarding provides you with full control over the game state: inject the game state in open rooms, save state on close of a room or react on events e.g. to calculate a player skill.
